"RSS is India's terrorist organisation. It should be banned and I have evidence," Rajratna said while addressing a gathering. "A Sadhvi sits next to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In one of her interviews, she says when the Indian Army exhausted its arms and ammunition, RSS provided them explosives. How did RSS get that arms, ammunition and explosives?"

Rajratna was apparently referring to BJP MP Pragya Singh Thakur who is among the seven accused facing trial in Malegaon blast case, wherein six people were killed and a dozen others were injured. A bomb placed on a motorcycle exploded in Maharashtra's Malegaon on September 29, 2008. It remains unclear when and where Rajratna, who heads the Buddhist Society of India (BSI), was speaking.

Rajratna has been slamming the BJP and RSS. Recently, he told a gathering that the BJP wants to change the Constitution of India. However, he added that the efforts put up by those protesting against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) made him believe that the BJP won't succeed.
